Newsom stopped taking calls for Markle months ago. She is a pest to people she wants to use.
Someone backing her has juice as evidenced by what happened at the Kevin Costner event.
Hard to say what is happening. maybe ARI Emanuel ego is so big he thought he could turn her around...or perhaps Serena Williams strongarmed him...but whatever is going on someone is still backing her.
Or maybe Ari cut Costner a deal on fees to let Markle try to steal the show.
Whatever the case, don’t count her out yet. Could be anti monarchists working behind the scenes.
